That the sales outlet provide the warranty is common practice in most 
parts of the world, including the EU and there is really no need to have 
outlet that cannibalizes on the local distributors market share.

Nikon will sell cameras to Brazilian outlets that will provide warranty 
under Brazilian law, and Nikon will repair them.:

"The company's other business segments, including customer service and 
technical assistance, will continue to operate normally in Brazil."

So they close down their "company store"... Big deal!
